What is this site all about then?
This site lists the movies that Michelle and I have seen, along
with our ratings (out of 100) and reviews. It also features the
Movie eAwards (or Gazzas) that are nominated and awarded every
year. Eventually I will add some other features like the All Time
Movie Charts.
Why aren't there many old movies on
here?
This site only has movies that I have seen since November
1996 which was when I started rated movies. I have decided not
to retrospectively rate movies from before this date as time
may have clouded my judgement.
What about videos and
TV movies?
Movies seen on TV and video do not normally rate as
well as movies seen at the cinema. In fact, most movies seen
on video or TV are not included in the official ratings due
to the huge difference between the large and small screens.
In any case, only movies seen at the cinema qualify for the
annual charts and the Movie eAwards.
Why isn't there a review for every movie?
I only started this site in November 1999. I have reviewed
the movies that I have seen since then, but I have not yet gone
back to write a review for the movies seen before then.
Who are you?
My name is Gary Whorwood. I currently
live in London, UK although I was born and bred in New Zealand.
Who is Michelle?
Her name is Michelle McWilliams. She
is my movie going companion (although it is sometimes hard to
get her to go horror movies). She also my web page design consultant
and some day we will get around to fixing up the colour scheme
and layout of this site to make it look a bit flasher.
How do your ratings work then?
There is not any science to how the
ratings work. They are simply a number between 0 and 100 based
on how much I liked a particular movie.
